Hi all, Do you think one male and 4 females would work in an exoterra that is 36 long by 18 deep and 36 high? I have some nice Cresties and it would be great to display them in that tank. Regards Dan

Hi, I put a wet sponge for the crickets to drink however they are actually eating the sponge. Is this an issue for when my geckos eat them? C

Hi, I recently purchased the 36x18x36 (exo terra large x-tall) terrarium with plans to keep a group of crested or gargoyle geckos (ie. 1 male and 3 females). The problem I am facing is that the room I am keeping this in is often around 65degrees, taking everything else down with it. -I feel...

Indications show that hatchlings are aggressive to one another and should be probably kept seperate. So: -How do you raise them separately? Jars? -At what age can they be rejoined? -At what age do males become aggressive to one another? (always?) Regards C

Hi all, I've been doing some research on Gargoyle geckos and how to determine quality is still a mystery to me. For example, I read a thread where someone commented on the quality of a gecko and I couldn't understand what determined that. So it a matter of: Size, colour, everything being in...

Hi, At what age do juvenile Williamsi's become aggressive with one another? Regards, C
